I’m sure more lay offs will come. They’ve already outsource claims and other departments to the Philippines in India. So there’s no doubt that more departments will now be handled over seas! (Yikes ) how’s everyone experience with the Philippines?... — read more 

Besides in October, that is. Working here is so stressful on so many levels, and then there is a constant expectation of layoffs as cherry on top.

I know this isn't lay off post. But wanted to share. I used Good RX for a prescription that was denied by Anthem and only paid 5.00 . I also had a prescription ' rung up' by the pharmacy under both my Anthem policy and Good RX and it was cheaper to... — read more 

With no layoffs today, does this mean we're safe for a while? Is it time to relax, at least for a little bit? I don't mean to sound naive, but I'm just tired of always thinking about whether I will have a job tomorrow or next week or not. It's not... — read more 

Does anyone have any thoughts about the truth behind ‘Growing Carelon’? With this being one of strategic initiatives, where does that leave Elevance associates? Not once have I heard how do we grow Elevance.

Calling for all remaining associates who survive monthly rifings to give yourself exceeds on all corporate values. This company doesn't actually uphold a single one of them and yet asks us to. Thanks for low bar. When compliance week rolls around... — read more 

Not to minimize any one particular person's RIF situation because it's all scary and terrible but I'd like to offer a small silver lining. YOU DONT HAVE TO BE INSURED BY US ANYMORE!!! your auths might go through. Your claims might get paid. Your... — read more 

So in a call with my unofficial manager and I am not exaggerating. Our director can’t be bothered to meet with us and there are no managers in our area. Anyway, this person proceeded to guarantee us we would not be hit with RIFs. My thought is the... — read more 

Well my fellow Helevancers. We made it without being thrown to the sharks. Lets enjoy our weekend.

It is amazing how a company can spend so much money on decorating stupid buildings to sacrifice their associates livelihood. I used to enjoy talking about Anthem as the best place to work but I can't say the same now. Stop hiring exes who are ready... — read more 

October layoffs are tough, especially since it’s close to year-end when finding a new job is difficult, and the market isn’t great right now. Why do companies choose to do layoffs at this time? Will they at least give employees time until the end of... — read more 

Ahhhh, sigh of releif. I made it through another week here. Yup! That's what I say to my wife at 5pm on a non-pay Thursday. It's become the ongoing joke in my home. As funny as this is, its no way to live. This company is truley the worst place I've... — read more 

We are already stressing and worrying all the time. There is no need to add fuel to the fire by talking about layoffs on a specific day as a certainty when it was never confirmed that it would actually happen. If you know something that the rest of... — read more 

Please report all 8/22 Rifs in this post

You know, when this company was actually worth working for. I’ve been here long enough to witness all the changes for the worse. These days it’s just plain ugly and rotten.

Does the company give additional support beyond supplemental pay and COBRA, like outplacement services?

How is that even a good thing ?! Beside them getting paid sh**y. They have access to members claims information Social Security number. So many providers are irate that claims are not processing correctly and then they call and speak to someone who... — read more 

Have you noticed that new position are saying AIP 0%. Are they taking AIP away? I’m positive there are a ton of changes coming. Insurance companies are offering less money & less bonuses these days.

Do they not realize that morale sinks after good employees are laid off? The remaining good people do not feel safe anymore and head for the hills the first chance they get. If this lasts long enough, the company could find itself in real trouble... — read more 

My first day at Helevance I said to another newbie, WTF is going on here. I was stupefied by the disaster I stepped into. The BS was so deep, I had to put on my hip boots. It seems like everyone was talking bull sheet and had very little... — read more 

Please take this into consideration. YOU. YOU PERSONALLY are not responsible for saving this company $1B. Or even whatever slice of that your workstream is responsible for. The pressure applied to associates about savings that had nothing to do with... — read more 

Not for nothing, but doesn't it seem like all of our leaders are by accident. Like people we just happened upon and just threw into positions because of "networking". It's just funny to me to see the number of VPs, staff vps and chiefs of chiefery... — read more 

I stopped watching The Real Housewives of Orange County so I can follow this company. It's much more entertaining. I cannot wait until next season!

I worked in the IT department back in 2021 as a contractor through Randstad. Always promising us to be hired full time and kept getting pushed back. They have us doing member calls first then moving onto the providers, employers, and brokers after... — read more 

Are layoffs happening day after tomorrow? Can someone in the know put ours worries at ease?

Can somebody please explain to me what's happening to this place? I've had a new manager every few months for the last two years. I'm not sure if it's restructuring, or people leaving, or if it's something else, but it's becoming worrisome... — read more 

Next Town Hall I'd like Anthem to comment on their NPS score https://www.comparably.com/brands/anthem-in Never happen.

Well, it looks like the RIFs are done for this month. See you next time.

It’s very important that the fake, happy-go-lucky reviews on Glassdoor, Indeed, etc are overshadowed with the truth! Elv is terrible and has been for years now. This board is very helpful but we should post these anonymous reviews everywhere we can. — read more 

There was a time many, many years ago, that then WellPoint - under the tutelage of then REAL WOMAN CEO

Are they laying off anyone from Marketing next week? It sounded like they’ll be announcing plans for the reorg. I’m assuming that’ll mean cuts. Will those be as early as Thursday, 8/22?

So who actually decides who gets RIFed in these regular layoffs? Is it HR? The worker’s manager? Some combination? TIA

I hope we can all decompress and breath again! Stay safe and be well.

This forum should be informative but instead there are so many folks complaining about jobs being moved offshore. If you don’t like it then work for another company or make yourself invaluable. Use your brains !! Elevance is a business, not your... — read more 

I pretty much expect it. If it’s true, it probably won't be as bloody. But who knows? They need to “optimize” us, which is always bad.
